Stone and Metal Siding going up!

The metal siding is made of stainless steel and the color is added with a special process that’s etched on to the metal which creates beautiful variations and texture.

More work on the museum displays.

In a previous post, we showed initial illustrations of the three main interpretive themes for the museum: Benny Benson and the Alaska Flag, Iditarod Trail, and Mile 0 the start of the AK Railroad. These revisions of the design add more content to help people even better visualize what they might look like (including trying to get grant reviewers excited). We're really jazzed about the rich story of seward….mile zero for a whole bunch of Alaskan history!
